Are you a CERT volunteer snowed in during the recent blizzard? Then we know you have an emergency preparedness kit (complete with food, flashlights, batteries, water, etc.) So you are prepared!
There are still a few things you can do:
- Check on your neighbors.
- Shovel out a fire hydrant.
Also, do you know what number to call, if you lose power and need someone to come evacuate you to a shelter? Chances are that someone will come and just pick you up are probably a little unlikely.
A good number to have on hand is your local county emergency hotline/information number.

That is a great idea about the fire hydrant. The last thing we need is contracted snowplows to plow through and take out a fire hydrant. Nonstop water, freezing to ice, wont improve the current situation.
